BABY #2: Birth Announcement and Name Reveal

After keeping us waiting for 12 days past her due date my bump finally became a baby at 9.46pm on 14th June 2017 weighing 8lbs 13ozs. A mere 8 hours after the induction process began, with established labour only lasting 1 hour 25 minutes! It couldn't have been a more different experience to Isabella's birth. I'll be writing up my birth story soon, as well as my experience of the induction process.

I've been keeping this little one's name a secret on social media since her birth, but now is the time for the big reveal. We have decided to name our second daughter...

Poppy

There are lots of reasons behind choosing this name, aside from the fact we obviously love it. It's linked closely to a family member who we sadly lost recently and they were my late Grandma's favourite flowers. As I write this we still haven't settled on a middle name, it's between two options. Choosing a name is such a big decision and since giving birth (who am I kidding - since forever!) I've been the most indecisive person.

Congratulations Helen! Poppy is absolutely beautiful and I hope your family is enjoying every moment. Thank you so much for featuring my milestone cards, I'd love to share your post and photos, let me know if this would be okay to do? Also, have a little look at my nursery prints and let me know which is your favourite. I'll pop one in the post for you! Send me an email with the details my love.

Wow that's such a gorgeous name! She's so beautiful. We were convinced my little girl was going to be called Ava when she was born. Yet as soon as we saw her it just didn't fit. It took us ages to decide on Evie. x
